Popis: The internationalization of doctoral programs is a relatively recent phenomenon, where first world countries exhibit the best results in the training of graduates. This contrasts with the incipient results of the few developing countries that have implemented this policy, mainly due to lack of resources and experience. This work aims to establish a theoretical-practical framework for the process of internationalization of doctoral programs, in pursuit of improving the quality and relevance of the profile of its graduates. The research used the dialectical paradigm, for which theoretical and empirical methods were used, among which are: analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, documentary analysis, and interviews with specialists who have lived experiences in this regard. The constructs internationalization, internationalization of postgraduate and research, and internationalization of doctoral programs were systematized, which made it possible to establish a theoretical-practical framework on the internationalization of doctoral programs. A set of strategic actions is offered that makes it possible to internationalize doctoral programs and, consequently, improve the quality and relevance of graduates.
